The Bootlicking Antagonist Wants to Survive,but Female Lead refuse to-Chapter 370 The Severely Injured Can’t Stop Sweat

Chapter 370 The Severely Injured Can't Stop Sweat

Lu Chengwen walked up to a table, pulled out a few cigars, and tossed them to Huo Wendong and Long Aotian.

Then he lit one.

He took a puff and said, "Go ahead, what exactly do you want? Kill me? Do it! Let's see, three Tianwang experts, plus Senior Brother and Zhuge Xiaohua... I'm doomed. Do it."

Long Aotian smiled and said, "Chengwen! Look at you, you've got it all wrong! You really misunderstood!"

"That's right, that's right!" Huo Wendong chimed in. "We're working together on something big. How could we possibly kill each other? These three aren't Tianwang experts, they're actually... performance artists!"

Huo Wendong turned around and asked, "Isn't that right?"

The three men nearly wanted to grab Huo Wendong's head and rip it off.

You idiot! You didn't even confirm who we were before losing your temper. You called us in, said there was going to be a big battle, and promised a hefty reward if we won.

And now you're saying we're performance artists?

We, dignified Tianwang experts, are supposed to go along with this nonsense!?

Huo Wendong was desperate, gritting his teeth. "Ten million each!"

The three men exchanged glances and immediately started striking cute, exaggerated poses.

After a few moments, Huo Wendong waved his cigar. "Alright, show's over, you can go now!"

The three men left.

Lu Chengwen asked, "Senior Brother, why do you want to kill me?"

Huo Wendong looked embarrassed. "No! Really, no! Chengwen, you have to believe me!"

Lu Chengwen looked at Xu Xuejiao. "What's her deal? She wouldn't let me touch her, said she's very traditional and wants her first time to be on our sacred wedding night. Fine, I put up with it. But now, she's invited a whole bunch of men over?"

Long Aotian and Huo Wendong were stunned.

This... this was really hard to explain!

Xu Xuejiao... me... Huo Wendong... this... this situation, this atmosphere, the sequence of events all lined up... it was almost impossible to keep their cover!

If Lu Chengwen turned hostile now, the hundreds of billions they had invested would go up in smoke!

The two men were sweating profusely, stumbling over their words, unable to come up with an explanation.

Lu Chengwen narrowed his eyes, looking at them with growing suspicion.

At that moment, Xu Xuejiao stepped forward!

She decided to turn the tide!

"Oh, Chengwen-ge! You misunderstood me!"

"Oh? Is that so?"

Lu Chengwen's eyes were icy cold.

Xu Xuejiao walked over and sat on Lu Chengwen's lap. "You're so mean, always doubting me!"

Lu Chengwen kept a stern face and slowly placed one hand around Xu Xuejiao's throat. "Xu Xuejiao! If you're lying to me, you and your whole family are dead!"

Xu Zhiyun, standing off to the side, tried to mediate. "Chengwen! Chengwen, Chengwen... how could she lie to you? I... I'm an old man now. They might try to deceive you, but could I? Let go of Xuejiao, don't do this!"

Lu Chengwen said, "You heard him? Your daughter is supposedly in a relationship with me, but she won't let me touch her. I put up with it. Today, I finally picked up a little chick to relieve myself, and I ran into you in the storage room! Uncle Xu, your whole family isn't scamming me, are you?"

"Oh, of course not!" Xu Zhiyun said, both distressed for his daughter and feeling guilty.

He was genuinely uncertain now.

Xu Xuejiao kept shifting between acting one way and another, mixing truth with lies. Even he was confused.

At this point, he had no idea if his daughter was being real one moment and fake the next.

Was she siding with Long Aotian to scam Lu Chengwen, or was she siding with Lu Chengwen to scam Long Aotian...

I'm an old man, why am I suffering through this?!

I worked hard my whole life, can't I just enjoy myself?

All I did was have a little fun with a model, and now it's turned into this mess...

Xu Zhiyun said, "I've already explained everything to them..."

Long Aotian, worried that Xu Zhiyun might mess things up, quickly said, "Chengwen, don't get agitated, we really aren't scamming you!"

Lu Chengwen let go of Xu Xuejiao, his eyes bloodshot.

In his heart, he resented them for hurting Hua Xue'ning, but outwardly, he was expressing his doubts about being betrayed.

"I'm already walking on a knife's edge, I can't afford a single mistake. If someone betrays me, it could ruin me and my entire family forever! I, Lu Chengwen, cannot take that risk!"

Huo Wendong said, "Chengwen, how could I possibly betray you? Back in college, weren't we good friends? Have you forgotten?"

Though in his heart, he thought: We're trying to utterly ruin you!

Long Aotian also said, "Chengwen, you've really misunderstood. We came here today because... because..."

Xu Xuejiao suddenly giggled. "Chengwen-ge, you wronged me today!"

Lu Chengwen looked at her. "How so?"

Xu Xuejiao clung to Lu Chengwen's arm and whined, "Just look at Long Aotian."

"Hm?"

"With his sorry state, how could I possibly like him?"

"Oh?"

"Is he rich? Hmph, a broke loser! Is he handsome? Just an average face! A useless nobody, pathetic and disgusting, a street rat even stray dogs wouldn't look at twice—do you really think I'd be interested in him?"

"You wouldn't?"

"Of course not! He's not even worthy of carrying my shoes."

"Is that so?"

Huo Wendong looked at Long Aotian and nodded slightly, as if to say: Just endure it, endure it.

The bigger picture, the bigger picture matters more.

Long Aotian was also very awkward.

Curse me all you want. The more you insult me, the safer I feel.

"But, he does have some skills. If we work with him, we won't lose out." fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

Lu Chengwen said, "So, if that's the case, then I understand—Huo Wendong is actually your true financial backer."

"Ah! You're so annoying!" Xu Xuejiao coquettishly said, "I only like you! Huo Wendong? Sure, he's got some stinking money, but just look at him—he's nothing more than a playboy. At best, he can use his cash to chase after some gold diggers, little celebrities, or B-list models. Those kinds of women, who would take off their clothes for money and don't care who it is, he can have as many as he wants. But I'm not that kind of woman."

This time, Long Aotian looked at Huo Wendong.

Brother, it's your turn. Endure it. Just like I did.

Lu Chengwen asked, "So what exactly is going on today?"

"Uh..." Xu Xuejiao said, "Actually, I was the one who invited them!"

"You?"

"Yeah?"

"What do you mean?"

Xu Xuejiao explained, "I... Oh, it's like this! Aotian-ge... No, I mean, this guy Long Aotian and Huo Wendong both agreed to invest another 10 billion into the Amusement City project! For free! It's a big business deal! So I invited them to the villa to discuss it. Who knew you'd be home so late? And your phone was off the whole time! So annoying!"

Lu Chengwen was stunned and looked at the two of them. "Is that true?"

Long Aotian reacted fast!

He hesitated for only two or three seconds before immediately understanding Xu Xuejiao's intent.

"Ah! Ah... Ah... Uh... Haha! Exactly!"

Long Aotian slapped his thigh. "Miss Xuejiao said, Chengwen-shidi, you are a man of great righteousness, a hero among heroes. This 10 billion is just a small gift from us to express our admiration and to help complete the Amusement City project as soon as possible! Right, Wendong-xiong?"

Huo Wendong was dumbfounded.

He looked at Long Aotian. "I-Is that so?"

"Yes!" Long Aotian frantically gave him a look—Come on, man, hurry up!

Long Aotian said, "President Huo even brought the money with him! Didn't you, President Huo?"

Lu Chengwen turned to look at Huo Wendong.

Huo Wendong's heart dropped—Why me?!

At that moment, the entire room was staring at him.

Huo Wendong's mouth twitched for a long while before he finally let out a laugh. Tears streamed down his face. "Of course! That's exactly it! Here, here, I'll transfer the money to you, Chengwen!"

Xu Xuejiao said, "Brother Lu, just relax and sit tight. I'll handle the transfer!"

"Mm, go ahead."

Dingdong!

"Your account has received a deposit of 10! Billion! Yuan! Huaxia Currency!"

Lu Chengwen glanced at them. Long Aotian and Huo Wendong were both smiling at him.

Only, Huo Wendong's face was covered in tears.

"Ah—" Lu Chengwen said, "So if I put it this way, you really were here to discuss business?"

"Exactly!"

The two of them clapped their hands together.

Long Aotian: "Chengwen, let me tell you, we love working with you the most! What's 10 billion compared to the bond between us brothers?"

Huo Wendong stood beside him, tears pouring like a waterfall. "That's my money..."

Long Aotian: "If I had to choose—whether it be that beauty! Or 10 billion, 20 billion, 30 billion... None of it could compare to the bond between us brothers!"

Huo Wendong, still crying, chimed in: "He really is such a sentimental man who values emotions over money!"

Long Aotian: "We all know you've been short on cash lately. Big projects mean big expenses, after all. So we came specifically to bring you money. We didn't want to, but Xuejiao ran around tirelessly for you! We were truly moved by her deep, unwavering love for you, and that's why Huo and I decided to add another 10 billion investment!"

Huo Wendong, his face drenched in tears, sobbed: "Your love is so touching! Xuejiao is so devoted to you!"

Long Aotian: "So! Our partnership must continue! As for Qi Meishao, don't worry—I'll deal with her! That damn girl, running around without orders, completely disregarding me! Ugh, she's just a little brat. It's because... haha... you messed with her before, and now she just can't let it go. Always trying to stir up trouble. Don't worry, leave this matter to me!"

Huo Wendong was now crying so hard he could barely breathe. "He'll take care of it, he really will."

Lu Chengwen held back his laughter. "Wendong, why are you crying?"

"Huh?" Huo Wendong wiped his face. "Am I crying? No, I'm not crying! These aren't tears! This is sweat from being wounded—seriously wounded!"

"Wow, I'm literally watching water pour out of your eyes like a fountain."

"Aiya, brother, just because you see something with your own eyes, does that make it true? I didn't even bring my eyes with me today! What you call 'seeing' is nothing but an illusion! Unreliable! Don't trust my eyes—trust my words!"

Lu Chengwen nodded. "Alright, you guys can go. I'll take care of Xu Xuejiao tonight!"

Long Aotian was stunned. "Hahaha! Of course, of course! You're a couple after all! Good luck, good luck! Uh... Huo-shao, let's go first. We don't want to get in the way of their... important matters, haha!"

Huo Wendong was crying so hard he could barely stand, and Bang Daomang had to support him.

Huo Wendong: "Chengwen, spend that 10 billion slowly. If it's not enough, come find me. I'm leaving now—I need to go home and heal my eyes. Right now, I just want to dig my eyeballs out, throw them on the ground, and stomp them to pieces myself. These damn things—they cost me too much money! Waaaaahhh..."

Jiang Xiaohou was once again completely stunned!

This... actually worked!?

This is insane!?

Xu Xuejiao! Lu Chengwen!

Are you two demons!?

Jiang Xiaohou flipped over, rushed outside, and pulled out his phone. "Let him go! I... I'm so excited! I've never been this happy before! Let him out—I need to see what happens next!"
